Central Otago Regional Orchestra - Swirling Winds
Location: Roxburgh and Wanaka
Dates: Sat, 29 April 2023 - Sun, 30 April 2023 @ 29th@ 7.30pm and 30th@ 2.30pm
The Central Otago Regional Orchestra is back in action again! After a chamber music foray in November last year when we performed in Alexandra, Wanaka and Bannockburn, it is exciting to have a full complement of musicians to present a concert series at the following locations:
7.30pm on April 29th, at the Roxburgh Entertainment Centre.
2.30pm, April 30th at the Lake Wanaka Centre.
The programme includes some well-known favourites such as the Fidelio Overture by Ludwig van Beethoven and two classic waltzes, the Blue Danube by Johann Strauss and Les Patineurs by Emile Waldteufel.
The piece de resistance, however, must be the opportunity to hear Nick Cornish, the Oboe Principal in the Dunedin Symphony Orchestra playing Josef Fiala’s Oboe Concerto. Nick is looking forward to the opportunity of playing this concerto with its exciting allegro, soothing adagio and rousing rondo to end.
All of this music will be under the baton of Ashley Hopkins, who has worked with several orchestras throughout New Zealand. Ashley has successfully guided the Central Otago Regional Orchestra in programmes over the last few years and is looking forward to a concert series without the COVID restrictions we have all faced in the last three years.
This is a musical opportunity not be missed.
